It seems slightly hypocritical for Notch to accuse them of talking behinds others backs and such when he did not say anything directly to them, and instead is slagging the Yogscast duo off via Twitter, although perhaps I'm being a bit sensitive to that kind of thing considering I completely and utterly hate people indirectly raging at others through social media due to my own experiences with it. :3 They seemed friendly towards each other in the interview, which must've been towards the end of Minecon, I have a feeling that the whole thing might be a bit of a pisstake, although it is highly likely that I'm wrong. Neither Notch, Simon nor Lewis seem the kind for this sort of thing, the three of them all seem pretty jovial from what I've seen and heard in the past.

I couldn't believe how rude they we're in the interview with Notch but I though Notch was in on it or something. My glad Notch spoke up about their wanky behaver. I've always hated Simon's ego and I hope it humbles him a bit more.

Im so lost is Notch the cactus looking character in Minecraft, Whats a Yogscast, is it the square pig. I dont know whats going on. I thought the cactus was supposed to be an evil character and is thus angry all the time. did he mine something ontop of someones hard work?

they're just antisocial cocks and can't really be blamed for most of that stuff. notch of anyone should get that, they're basically the representatives of the entire minecraft fanbase. but wanting money from notch is fucking ridiculous if that's true.

Just as he does everything, such as the legal dispute with Bethesda. Before he reacted to it he'd gotten all of the fans up in rage about it, and was making complaint letters publicly available via Twitter and Tumblr and such. Not saying that I didn't agree with his side on that case, but he could definitely have dealt with the whole thing with a bit more subtlety.

notch is a humbly autistic jewking who can't take it when anyone calls him out on being unproductive or unprofessional. i've not seen much of the yogscast but they seem like two hardcore gamers who are forced to make shitty videos for kids so they can put a bit of extra cash in their pocket, who aside 4chan pretty much made the game so popular. this stuff's been all over /v/ last night through to today and i thought you guys wouldn't care but NOPE.

Of all people the Yogscast I'd say would be more obliged to pay, considering the majority of their incoming money is from views of their Minecraft videos (compare the view count of SoI vs any other random non-minecraft video).

Citric, bit off on a tangent, did you attend? I recall being on the Minecraft wiki a few months back when I was with a bro and reading your name, then that you were the owner of both the wiki and forum domains, for a moment I wondered if it was the same citricsquid, but it's not exactly the kind of username that you find commonly. I ended up having to check your samryan site to find out.

I guess I'm kind of partial because I feel Notch had/has no idea how to deal with the fame he's garnered nor the capacity to keep his game interesting while not being gimmicky. In contrast, the Yogscast have done nothing but make me laugh and I enjoy their videos.

But if they were acting like such dicks, they should apologize. Really, the Yogscast is famous due to Minecraft, and Minecraft grew more popular with the Yogscast. They should be thanking each other for their accomplishments.

Honestly, I've watched the yogscast for awhile, I don't think that they'd be serious about any of the things Notch is saying they did, and if they did, that they were being incredibly sarcastic about it as they always are about everything.

Again, I'm highly doubtful that this even happened, I doubt Notch was following them around all day noting things they said, my guess is that somebody either

a) Misheard what they said because they weren't really paying attention and were at a distance
b) Misinterpreted what should have been obvious sarcasm
c) Is trolling and is now laughing their ass off at how well it worked.
